First U.K. edition, fifth impression, of this classic, which helped make science fiction mainstream for young adults; issued nine years after the first printing and in the same format. It has been described as "a journey through space and time, from universe to universe" for its main characters, Meg Murry, Charles Wallace Murry, and Calvin O'Keefe, as they seek to save both the Murrys' father, and the world. It has been adapted to film twice over the years, both times by Disney.
